They then traded from 17 to 15 for only a fifth-round selection and picked up Branden Albert, an elite offensive lineman. Then, the Chiefs fell into a traditional draft mode and picked an additional 10 players, including standouts like Brandon Flowers, Jamaal Charles and Brad Cottam. Quality, quantity, stars and depth, the Chiefs drafted at least six starters. This is a great example of intelligence, experience and hard work.
